OKG has entered into an agreement with Hynion for the delivery of hydrogen from its hydrogen plant in Oskarshamn. With another supplier, Hynion ensures the availability of hydrogen and prepares for increasing hydrogen-powered traffic in Sweden. Hynion, which continuously strives to enhance the operational reliability of its hydrogen refueling stations, is now taking an important step by including OKG as one of its hydrogen suppliers.

This partnership represents an important part of Hynion's strategy to reduce dependence on individual suppliers. Uniper, the international energy company that owns OKG, plays an important role in over 40 countries and is a leading electricity producer in Sweden. Uniper's facilities, including fossil-free hydropower and nuclear power, are crucial for both secure energy supply and the ongoing energy transition.

The hydrogen that Hynion will use is produced at OKG's nuclear power plant, where Oskarshamn 3 (O3), one of the world's largest boiling water reactors, generated 9.2 TWh of carbon-free electricity in 2023, equivalent to 6.8 % of Sweden's total electricity consumption.
